I liked the part where the banker told the kid, "You don't even know what a derivative is."

Look, while I might agree with you that the guy might be a pompous b-hole when he wants to be. But, that banker also busted his his b-hole to get where he is today. He's not the one spending your money. So, why should the protestors take it out on him? He is only doing his job of what he signed up for and only trying to support his family.
Did you not hear him say that the banks have to pay 5% extra on the bailout? He didn't ask for the bailout.
He might be just managing the bank, doesn't make him a part of it. Just means he's doing his job. No different from Military men and women signing up for a job they don't want and have to invade country. No different from the LEO signing up for their job to lower the crime rates.edit on 6-10-2011 by Manhater because: (no reason given)
